 AUDIOPHILE Eva Cassidy Songbird SEALED LP

I 've been collecting vinyl records for the past 10 years and have decided to put many of them up for sale. All are audiophile, and most are highly collectible. Many of them are new and never played.

All used records will be cleaned professionally using vpi record cleaning machine.

I 'm a collector, so I know how important it is to pack and ship LP's correctly. I use a new record mailer for packing. I ship them usually in two working days after payment.

BUY IT WITH CONFIDENCE!!!

This is a copy of Eva Cassidy Songbird on S&P records S&P-501. This is a Steve Hoffman remastered on 180+ virgin vinyl. A sonic delight!

ARTIST : Eva Cassidy

TITLE    : Songbird

LONG OUT OF PRINT!!! 

Remastered on Steve Hoffman's vintage vacuum tube playback system. Plating of the laquers is done the same day as cutting, using a slow low-temperature bath to minimize groove echo and loss of high frequency information. The result is the best sounding series of LPs in history. Made with only the purest virgin vinyl on HQ 180+ process a thick, super flat, extra heavy virgin vinyl disc of unmatched sound quality. Manufactured at World famous RTI Audiophile pressing plant.

“I Know You By Heart,” written by Diane Scanlon and Eve Nelson, is about the lasting intimacy of love, and Cassidy’s version of “People Get Ready” is the best version of the Curtis Mayfield song I’ve heard. Pete Seeger’s “Oh, Had I A Golden Thread,” apparently one of Cassidy’s favorite songs, has a wistfully maternal quality, while Harburg and Arlen’s “Over the Rainbow” skirts various sentimental associations but Cassidy does not embarrassingly indulge them.

Eva Cassidy’s Songbird anthology collects songs from various albums she recorded before dying of cancer: she gives “Fields of Gold,” written by Sting (Gordon Sumner), a golden, slow, tender, thoughtful interpretation, and does an authoritative and rhythmically astute reading of “Wade in the Water,” a traditional song; and there’s a slightly girlish poetic reverie in her treatment of Johnny Mercer’s “Autumn Leaves,” which was co-written with Joseph Kozma and Jacques Prevert, while “Wayfaring Stranger,” another traditional song with a spiritual theme, is sultry and hard-charging. A pretty song, “Songbird,” written by Christine McVie, is also an expressive vocal exercise. Eva Cassidy scats in “Time Is A Healer,” written by Diane Scanlon and Greg Smith, a song that promises that love heals the wounds that love makes. “I Know You By Heart,” written by Diane Scanlon and Eve Nelson, is about the lasting intimacy of love, and Cassidy’s version of “People Get Ready” is the best version of the Curtis Mayfield song I’ve heard. Pete Seeger’s “Oh, Had I A Golden Thread,” apparently one of Cassidy’s favorite songs, has a wistfully maternal quality, while Harburg and Arlen’s “Over the Rainbow” skirts various sentimental associations but Cassidy does not embarrassingly indulge them. The Songbird collection is a very good introduction to Cassidy, whose work did not reach a significant public until after her death; and having heard most of her other released recordings I can say that it is an introduction deeply welcomed.
